Help Installing a Grille Badge?

Hey Bimmerfest!

While on vacation in Monte Carlo, I picked up one of the Monaco Automobile Club's grille badges for my X3 back home. Does anyone know how I should go about attaching this to the grille? I'm going for this sort of look:



The badge didn't come with any sort of mounting bracket as it's designed to go either on your grille or adhesive'd to the back of your car next to the license plate, and the staff at the ACM boutique explained that to mount it to the front, I should take it to a professional who should have the mounting brakcets and hardware at their store--this may be the case at a garage in Monaco, but I'm not so sure about Texas. I'm planning on taking it by the BMW Center when I get home and seeing what they think (and also to hit up some new software for my X3--looks like there's an update concerning tranny lag).

Any suggestions on how to get it mounted? I don't know that the BMW Center will be able to, but I bet they'll know a local European garage that might be able to. Worst case, I can just buy a bracket on the net and try it for myself.
